Individuality through modularity

SINAMICS S120 Cabinet Modules are drive converters that can be engineered for the particular drive application using a modular principle – so that almost any drive solution can be optimally imple-mented. This modular system is espe-cially suited for multi-motors with central line supply infeed and common DC link busbars. For instance, these are typically found in paper machines, rolling mills, test stands, cranes and lifting equipment.

Simple planning, simple service

SINAMICS S120 Cabinet Modules are a completely new development. They are convincing in every phase of the product life cycle as a result of their cost-effec-tiveness and simplicity – from planning and procurement through installation and commissioning up to day-to-day operation and service. SINAMICS S120 Cabinet Modules offer an outstanding price-performance ratio and they can be integrated into any automation solution.

The ideal module combination is easily configured

Simple configuration using standardized interfaces

The type-tested cabinet modules can be quickly and simply linked together to address almost any plant or system configuration. Standardized interfaces for the power and control connections simplify engineering and installation. Prefabricated busbar sets are used to establish the power connections between the various modules. Communications between the power modules and the central control unit – from where all of the axes are controlled – are realized via DRIVE-CLiQ. DRIVE-CLiQ is a serial interface inside the drive. Also using prefabricated cables with different lengths, it allows the complete drive group to be quickly and easily con- figured.

The optimum configuration – quickly and reliably: SIZER engineering tool

Using SINAMICS, a drive system is engineered quickly and reliably as never before. This is because the SIZER engi-neering tool includes all of the compo-nents required to engineer a drive system and permits the user to simply dimension the drive to specifically address the appli-cation. SIZER is easy to learn and can be intuitively handled thanks to its graphic operator interface and the integrated Wizards.

This means that users are optimally sup-ported when engineering and selecting SINAMICS S120 Cabinet Modules.

Speeds up commissioning: STARTER tool

STARTER is the standard commissioning tool for all drives belonging to the SINAMICS family. The commissioning engineer can transparently configure and optimize even complex systems in an extremely short time. STARTER is available in three installation versions: As stand-alone version, integrated in Drive ES for applications with SIMATIC or integrated in SCOUT for applications with SIMOTION.

Prepared and shipped ready to be connected up

SINAMICS S120 Cabinet Modules have all of the connections and connecting ele-ments required. Standardized interfaces for all of the versions of the drive units help when it comes to connecting up and analyzing. With a well-conceived configu-ration, they are ready to be connected up when supplied. The individual modules can already be combined in the factory to form prefabricated transport units with a total length of up to 2400 mm. Prepared in this way, they can be simply and easily combined in the plant to create a total system.

SINAMICS S120 Cabinet Modules – freely combinable modules

Line Connection Modules to connect to the line supply: These include the line-side components such as contactors, fuses and circuit breakers as well as line reactors for applications without regenerative feedback into the line supply

Line Modules for the infeed

Basic Line Modules for 2-quadrant operation if regenerative feedback into the line supply is not required

Smart Line Modules for 4-quadrant operation if it makes sense to regenerate braking energy back into the line supply

Active Line Modules for 4-quadrant operation if, in addition to the regenerative feedback into the line supply, the line harmonics are to be reduced to a minimum and voltage fluctuations are to be compensated

Central Braking Modules to electrically brake the motor

Motor Modules to control the speed of the connected motor

Booksize version for axes with low power ratings

Chassis version for axes with high power ratings

Auxiliary Power Supply Modules for the auxiliary voltage

Installation is as simple as it gets as even large cable cross sections can be easily connected. If the comprehensive stan-dard version isn't sufficient, then a whole raft of options is available that have been specifically developed to address the requirements of a multi-motor system. Whether with a unique DC link coupling or extended safety interfaces, SINAMICS S120 Cabinet Modules can be adapted to each and every require- ment. Installation is also simplified as SINAMICS S120 Cabinet Modules are supplied in standard cabinets in a 200 mm grid dimension.

SINAMICS S120 Cabinet Modules can be easily integrated into higher-level automation systems. PROFIBUS and PROFINET interfaces provided as standard as well as various other analog and digital interfaces ensure this high degree of connectivity.

Reliable and service-friendly Operational reliability over the long term

Rugged and straightforward for the highest degree of reliability

SINAMICS S120 Cabinet Modules are extremely reliable as a result of their rugged, straightforward design. A special mechanical design of the cabinet guaran-tees mechanical endurance and strength. This is supplemented, among other things, by the fact that all of the standard busbars as well as the electronic boards and modules are protected against envi- ronmental effects. This is achieved by consequentially using nickel-plated cop-per busbars as well as coated boards and modules. It goes without saying that all of the components – from the production of individual parts up to ready-to-connect cabinets – are subject to exhaustive checks during the complete production process. This guarantees high functional safety during installation, commissioning and in operation.

Service-friendly design

The easily accessible individual modules

and power components can be easily and quickly replaced; this further increases the plant and system availability. SINAMICS S120 Cabinet Modules have the highest level of service-friendliness and a compact design – especially due to the fact that functions are combined to form function blocks and modules. In fact, when originally designing the units, top priority was given to ensuring good accessibility and the ability to quickly replace all of the modules in the drive unit. Individual modules such as the fan assembly, closed-loop control electronics, customer interfaces and power compo-nents can be easily replaced when service is required. This in turn secures the high degree of availability. The spare parts that are available can be easily and indi- vidually viewed at any time using the “Spares On Web” Internet tool. Integrated operational safety and reliability

All of the SINAMICS S120 Cabinet Modules were developed according to

the specifications of the zone concept. This is the reason that they provide the highest possible degree of operational reliability and safety. EMC measures have been consequentially implemented. Partitions to guide and route the airflow and to maintain temperature levels were designed with the help of computer-aided simulation.

Cost-saving through high energy efficiency

Variable-speed operation of the Cabinet Modules frequently reduces the energy demand in the double-digit percentage range. In addition, frequency converter modules are also available in a version

so that room climate control is not required. Energy consumption can be sig-nificantly reduced as a result of the low energy consumption for liquid cooling.

Low space requirement – simplified planning and mounting

The footprint of SINAMICS S120 Cabinet Modules is up to 50 % smaller than for conventional units. The cabinet widths decrease in a 200 mm grid. For degree of protection IP54, to further reduce maintenance costs – for example when changing filter elements – liquid-cooled cabinets can be used. In many applica-tions, additional costs can be saved by recovering the heat. Here, for example, the hot cooling water can be used for process heat, heating or hot water.

that is capable of energy recovery. This means that the energy that is generated when braking can be used by other elec-tric loads. This eliminates the usual waste when converting the regenerative power into heat in pulsed resistors. If the drive system includes motors that operate both in the motor and genera-tor modes, then these can be coupled through a common DC link so that they can exchange energy between one ano-ther. This allows additional energy to be saved and harmonics fed back into the line supply reduced. In certain cases, the line supply infeed of the drive group can even be dimensioned smaller than would be required for the total power of the individual modules connected to the common DC link.

Quiet and compact as a result of the optimized technical concept

Modular mechanical design, IGBT power semiconductors with ex-tremely low losses and an innovative cooling concept make SINAMICS S120 Cabinet Modules the quietest and most

compact air-cooled converters in stan-dard cabinets.

In order to reduce the noise level, the cooling air routing through the unit was optimized using state-of-the-art thermo simulation techniques. A lower cooling requirement has also been able to be achieved by consequentially using new, low-loss components. The tangential fans located in the lower area of the cabinet are very quiet and blow the cooling air upwards through the drive converter. As a consequence, all of the power ele-ments have the same intake tempera- ture. Result: When compared to con- ventional cabinet units, the noise level is significantly lower.

Innovative liquid-cooling concept

For drives in poorly ventilated spaces and operating under harsh environmental conditions, for instance on board ships and industrial systems, the liquid-cooled version of the SINAMICS S120 is the ideal sector solution. The liquid cooling allows heat to be far more efficiently dissipated,
